The primary issue was one of focus, IMO. SoW is right to concentrate on a narrow time frame, and I'd hope additional content would try to add on that, either before or after. Narrow theater, narrow the content to fill the time/theater.
PF should have focused. Somewhere.
If CVs were the centerpiece, they should have improved the shipping in more ways (better DMs, moving ships on DF maps, realistic CV ops, etc)
If using the more complete land-based campaign engine was the way to go, then pick someplace and make some useful maps for it. Don't waste time on maps that are useful for ONE MORNING of the war (and have no ships to put there), and instead build... The Slot. Or a better New Guinea map(s). Or A few Burma maps to have fighting go from early to late in the war.
